autumn picks

Hello! It's now October, this year is going by so quickly! It's definitely autumn now. The thing I love most about A/W is the fashion! Knitwear and coats are appearing in the shops now. Here are some of my favourites!

1 . The Tartan Scarf
I'd been looking for the perfect tartan scarf for the past two winters and finally found it in H&M the other day. It's quite long wide which is good for wrapping up! The red and black tartan pattern is quite versatile and adds a unique touch of colour to an outfit.
£7.99, H&M
2. The oversized boyfriend coat/teddy boy coat

This coat is AMAZING! The oversized boyfriend style is really flattering and 'on-trend'. The faux fur collar is detachable so you can create different looks. The grey, white and black tweed pattern is also quite easy to match with different colours (particularly burgundy and dark green).
3. The Brocade Trouser

I've fallen in love with anything brocade this season! Both Zara and Asos have beautiful pairs of brocade trousers. I think they look great with a shirt, baggy knitted jumper and loafers for a smart, chic look.

4. The Wine Lipstick

I love dark lipsticks for Autumn and Winter. This Topshop one is definitely one I'll be trying this season! I also love Rimmel Starry Eyed, but it always seems to sell out in my local Boots!
5. The 'Slipper' shoe

I think these shoes would look great with Brocade trousers for a beautiful luxe look.
I found these on ebay and they're available on Amazon too. I also love the oriental slippers from Office, now in the sale at £28!
